Vintage Rail Journeys

Customised

Step back in time with us and travel in style aboard a fleet of restored 1960s ex-Southern Aurora sleeping carriages.

Celebrate New South Wales diverse history and rich culture with visits to regional towns, gardens and attractions. You will travel on rail lines which don’t have scheduled passenger services, making this a real adventure!

You might remember the iconic Southern Aurora when it ran from the 1960s to the 1980s between Sydney and Melbourne. The darling of Australian travel, the Southern Aurora was first class in its day.

Vintage Rail Journeys is proud to share with you our passion for Australian rail history. Our heritage partners have lovingly restored these carriages to their original condition and maintained them ever since. This is luxury 1960s style, and we hope you love the experience.
